    In the States, this model, the FW260J/H, is compatible with both the 32 and 64-bit Vista Home Premium. Drivers are here: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/swu-list.pl?mdl=VGNFW260JH

    You could always purchase the disks for the 32-bit version of Home Premium from Sony directly. It does not appear that Sony purchased the licenses for XP for the FW2 series, but if your software needs require a 32-bit system, you can install the Vista Home Premium 32-bit with no problem.
